Your correspondent noticed in the
last issue OF the Chicago Conservator, a
piece under the heading Run him in,' u
which has reference to Prof C. A. John-
son as a lecturer and an editor. The ar
ticle declares him to be an unmitigated
fraud, and styles him 1.-THE reputed
editor of the alleged newspaper, British
Lion and American Eagle. How strange
1t does seem that such ignorance
should prevail among supposed intelli-
gent people in charge of the Con-
servator. In the first place they do not
seem to know that the British Lion and
the American Eagle are two distinct
papers edited by the same man but
published in two distinct countries
second, they cannot see (al1hough it
is none of their business) how those
papers can be published and sent broad
cast to the world tree Of charge; third,
they cannot see how man can come in
to their city and flourish with his enter
prise and five papers, where they can
hardly exc out an existence, at pub
fishing a paper at two dollars per
annunl; and last, but not least, they do
not seem to like the idea of a man
coming to Chicago, attending to his own
business and notpaying special attention
to a hired sheet that is of no conse-
quence to any one, and again from the
fact that they declare that they have
proclaimed him to be fraud
which has had no effect upon the pub
lie mind whatever, goes to show that he
is pursuing legitimate course and that
they have no weight or influence what
ever with them. Let the Conservation
continue to try to run him in, and thew
will be dead and forgotten e'er Prof. G.,
A. has ever been run in by them, or
any other Weakened contemporary
as they are. Your correspondent makes
this reference to the article from the
fact that he has seen several attacks on
Prof. through the columns of the Con-
servator and being personally acquaint-
ed with the gentleman, and having
heard him lecture in Boston, New
York, Buffalo, Hamilton, Toronto and
Chicago and knowing the Professors
ability, feel that it is simply an inius-
tlce that the Conservator is attempting
to heap upon without any legiti-
mate cause whatever. A. A. RUSSELL.
